Think Pink!

Pink is so sweet and so girly girl. It adds a lot of femininity to a piece of jewelry or an article of clothing. Pink is less passionate than red, but offers an innocence instead. Rose QuartzThis mineral can be cut into cabs, and when the light hits it just right, you can see a star within the stone. It can fade over time. It is the Taurus birthstone. Rhodochrosite This mineral is from the calcite series and raspberry pink is the most common color. Although, it can be found in faded pink or even orange at times. This stone is found in copper veins. This is the state gem of Colorado.TugtupiteThis mineral is a lot like sodalite, and it can be translucent to completely transparent. The stones have the ability to turn deeper red as they warm up, so when worn, they can become a warmer color if they are in contact with the skin. A mood mineral, if you will. Pink MorganiteWhen these stones are green, they are called emeralds, but when they are pink, well, they are pink. They vary from light pink to dark pink. All of these lovely pink shades will have you longing for spring. Until it gets here, here are more pinks that you can own today!

Pink is such a perfect color this time of the year with the cherry blossoms blooming (: These beautiful selections help me visualize them (: Many thanks for including my flower earrings made with you-know-who's beads. Seamus sends doggie treats to his Blu buddy. Sharing far and wide.

I think pink has been maligned because of it's association with things like bubble gum and Barbie. However, as you've shown so well, it actually comes in so many diverse shades and can be quite lovely! Thank you for including my Hibiscus flower earrings. Will share!
